Until a few months ago we had two male children's librarians in my library service. One of them's left but the other still shaves regularly, and several of the library assistants who help out with children's story time are blokes as well. Great poem, "Green Eggs & Ham" and several other Dr Seuss stories were the main reason I became the best reader in my class as a small boy, and consequently a book addict and librarian in adult life. I owe the man a very great deal.
